Wristband 1000 can be constructed to analyze signals from theattachment to determine that characters are being written by the user.Wristband 1000 can be constructed to cause an audio of characterswritten by the user to be played by a speaker/microphone 1400 or to anearpiece port 1500.

Via speech recognition methods, wristband 1000 is constructed to receiveaudio inputs from the user that assist wristband 1000 in machinelearning of characters indicated by motion of the finger of the user.Certain exemplary embodiments can utilize algorithms to recognizecharacters based upon the wearing user's handwriting and algorithms thatuse heuristic rules to parse the handwritten characters into words andphrases. For example, one or more methods such as is disclosed in U.S.Pat. No. 7,724,957, which is incorporated by reference herein in itsentirety, can be used.

Via speech recognition methods, wristband 1000 is constructed to receiveaudio inputs from the user that assist wristband 1000 in determiningthat no characters have been indicated by motion of the finger of theuser. Wristband 1000 can be constructed to transmit signals indicativeof writing to a server via a network. Responsive to a user selection,the server can cause writings of the user to be uploaded to a website.

Wristband 1000 can comprise a cardiac monitor 1600 that is constructedto monitor a heart rate of the user. Wristband 1000 can be constructedto determine a room of a structure responsive to an analysis of theheart rate of the user. Wristband 1000 can be constructed to render acolor of a plurality of colors, each of color representing thedetermined location in the structure.

In certain exemplary embodiments, a predetermined letter can behighlighted, illuminated, and/or rendered responsive to a heart rateexceeding a predetermined threshold.

FIG. 2 is a side view of an exemplary embodiment of a ring 2000. Ring2000 can comprise a camera 2200. Ring 2000 comprises a wirelesstransceiver 2100 constructed to transmit images. A wristband (e.g.,wristband 1000 of FIG. 1) is constructed to determine a room of astructure responsive to images transmitted by the ring. The wristbandcan be constructed to render a color of a plurality of colors, each ofcolor representing the determined location in the structure.

In certain exemplary embodiments, finger attachment 3000 can trigger arecordation of audio through a speaker/microphone (e.g.,speaker/microphone 1400 of FIG. 1). In certain exemplary embodimentscause the speaker/microphone to ask a user for information concerningfinger movement (e.g., the speaker/microphone can ask a question such as“did you just write an “r”?, or “please spell out what your wrote”?) anda response can be received via the speaker/microphone. An informationdevice comprised by the wristband, or communicatively coupled to thewristband, can compare responses of the user to programmed choices ofcharacters and/or writing. Thereby, machine learning can be facilitated.

Certain exemplary embodiments can suggest completion of phrases basedupon an initial detected character, word, or phrase written by the user.The completion of phrases suggestions can be rendered on a userinterface of the wristband. A touch sensitive surface comprised by thewristband can receive a touch input by the user accepting one or more ofthe suggested completion of phrases. For example, if a user writes“Trisha is so awesome no one wants to say it aloud”, the informationdevice comprised by and/or coupled to the wristband can suggest a phrasethe next time the name “Trisha” is detected. For example, a suggestionof “is my friend” might be the suggested completion of phrases.

In certain exemplary embodiments, audio can be triggered via fingerattachment 3000 detecting a relaxation of a hand of the user.

Note

Still other substantially and specifically practical and usefulembodiments will become readily apparent to those skilled in this artfrom reading the above-recited and/or herein-included detaileddescription and/or drawings of certain exemplary embodiments. It shouldbe understood that numerous variations, modifications, and additionalembodiments are possible, and accordingly, all such variations,modifications, and embodiments are to be regarded as being within thescope of this application.

Thus, regardless of the content of any portion (e.g., title, field,background, summary, description, abstract, drawing figure, etc.) ofthis application, unless clearly specified to the contrary, such as viaexplicit definition, assertion, or argument, with respect to any claim,whether of this application and/or any claim of any application claimingpriority hereto, and whether originally presented or otherwise:

-   -   there is no requirement for the inclusion of any particular        described or illustrated characteristic, function, activity, or        element, any particular sequence of activities, or any        particular interrelationship of elements;    -   no characteristic, function, activity, or element is        “essential”;    -   any elements can be integrated, segregated, and/or duplicated;    -   any activity can be repeated, any activity can be performed by        multiple entities, and/or any activity can be performed in        multiple jurisdictions; and    -   any activity or element can be specifically excluded, the        sequence of activities can vary, and/or the interrelationship of        elements can vary.

Moreover, when any number or range is described herein, unless clearlystated otherwise, that number or range is approximate.

 6. The system of claim 1, wherein: a ring, the ring comprising a camera, the ring comprising a second wireless transmitter constructed to transmit images; the wristband is constructed to determine another person is in proximity of the user; and the wristband is constructed to render an alert to the user concerning proximity of another person.
 7. The system of claim 1, further comprising: a ring, the ring comprising a camera, the ring comprising a second wireless transmitter constructed to transmit images; and the wristband is constructed to analyze the images to determine one or more characteristics of each image; and the one or more characteristics of each image is rendered via the wristband.
